now that's a sad passing.
I couldn't give a huge crap less for rodney dangerfield (he irritates me deeply), ...but Jacques Derrida ...His ideas had a HUGE impact on how I read everything from Chaucer to my grocery lists in grad school.

I think Gordo Cooper's passing was the saddest celebrity death this week.

But then, I loved The Right Stuff.

I'm going to have to disagree on this one. I loathed reading Derrida and his work. "Difference" was one of the worst and most painful things I'd ever read. I was never a huge fan of post-modern writers and theorists. Saussure(sp?) and Derrida being two of them.
